Facing Life: The Re-Trial of Evan Zimmerman|
Evan Zimmerman was convicted of murdering his ex-girlfriend, a crime he said he did not commit. After three terrible years in prison, Zimmerman won a chance at a new trial when an appeals court ruled that his lawyer had been ineffective. Despite being traumatized by his imprisonment and suffering a stroke while inside, Zimmerman chooses to refuse a plea deal and risk it all to clear his name. Viewers will see the tense re-trial unfold -- the defense team's strategizing, the 11th-hour moves, and the dramatic conclusion.
